Part 2. Textbook questions
Chapter 7
7.1 Generalize the basic approaches we used for making the best out of best effort service for real-time interactive multimedia applications.
7.2 Why RTSP is called an out of band control protocol? Find out another protocol that also uses out of band control and compare them.
7.3 Assume an Internet phone application generates packets only during talk spurts. During a talk spurt the sender generates bytes at a rate of 1,000 bytes per second, and every 40 msecs the sender gathers bytes into chunks. Assume that RTP is used that will add a header to each chunk. In addition UDP and IP will be used. Suppose all headers (including RTP, UDP and IP) have a total length of h and an IP datagram is emitted every 50 msecs. Find the transmission rate in bits per second for the datagram generated by one side of the application.
7.4 Consider the procedure described in “Adaptive Playout Delay” for estimating average delay di. Let r1 - t1 be the most recent sample delay, let r2 -t2 be the next most recent sample delay, and so on. For a given audio application, suppose three packets have arrived at the receiver with sample delays r3 -t3 , r2 - t2 , and r1 -t1 . Express the estimate of delay d in terms of u and the three samples.
7.5 This chapter describes several FEC schemes. Briefly summarize them . Both schemes increase the transmission rate of the stream by adding overhead. Does interleaving also increase the transmission rate?
7.6 Compare the procedure described in “Adaptive Playout Delay” for estimating average delay with the procedure in Chapter 3 (“Estimating the Round-Trip Time”) for estimating round-trip time. What do the procedures have in common? How are they different?
7.7 Is it possible for a CDN to provide worse performance to a host requesting a multimedia object than if the host has requested the object directly from the distant origin server? Please explain.
7.8 Compare and contrast RTSP and HTTP used for multimedia applications.
7.9 Summarize how the token buckets and WFQs can be used together to provide policing mechanisms.
Chapter 8
8.1 What is the most important difference between a symmetric key system and a public key system?
8.2 In what way does a hash function provide a better message integrity check than a checksum (such as Internet Checksum)?
8.3 Can you “decrypt” a hash of a message to get the original message? Explain.
8.4 Suppose that Bob receives a PGP message from Alice. How does Bob know for sure that Alice created the message?
8.5 Consider WEP for 802.11. Suppose that the data is 01010101 and the keystream is 11110001. What is the resulting ciphertext?
8.6. Using the monoalphabetic cipher in the textbook, encode the message “Computer is fun.” Decode the message “rmij’u uamu xyj.”
8.7 Consider the RSA algorithm with p=5 and q=11. a. What are n and z? b. Let e be 3. Why is this an acceptable choice for e? c. Find d such that de=1 (mod z) and d<160.
Chapter 9
9.1 What are the five areas of network management defined by the ISO?
9.2 Define the following terms; managing entity, managed device, management agent, MIB, network management protocol.
9.3 What is SNMP and what are its major parts?
9.4 In this chapter we saw that it was preferable to transport SNMP messages in unreliable UDP datagrams. Why do you think the designers of SNMP chose UDP rather than TCP as the transport protocol of choice for SNMP?
